Hi

He is very knowledgeable.

I briefly told him about my sons case and he knew exactly what I mean't which was comforting and made a change from other attorneys I have dealt with

He even said that he might be able to put me in touch with two other simular cases so we may wish to do a joint class action. This way we could all share the cost.

I am just holding tight for a while as my attorney is writing to VO to tey and convince them to re-consider their decision. But I may well have to do a class action if this does not work

If I can help you Julie in anyway I will, just let me know. I really feel for you during this period of time (or lack of it) with your son who is nearly 21 years. Trust me I know just how upsetting this immigration system is
